Remove the REVERSE-THREAD screw at the bottom of the chuck. Set the clutch collar to the highest setting, and set the gear to the slowest setting on the transmission. Remove the power source! Get the biggest allen wrench you can fit in the end of the chuck(the shortest leg) and tighten the chuck down around it, allowing the jaws to rest and tighten on the flats of the wrench. Lay the drill on its side(chuck toward you, handle to the left, and allen wrench to the left, horizontal to the deck). Then with a hammer(soft hammer if you care about the allen wrench) quickly and deliberately hit the allen wrench in an attempt to cause the allen wrench to spin counter clockwise. Let me know if this works for you!

How do i close the chuck on a dewalt dcd950

The DCD950 was DeWalt's worst chuck design. This chuck has no chuck screw, they loaded the spindle with locktite and put them on. Consequently, the chucks are nearly impossible to remove. DeWalt made a tool for this purpose, but it costs almost $90 - the only alternative was to replace the gearcase assy but they just made it obsolete, no longer available.
There is a conversion kit but the problem remains, you still need to be able to remove the old chuck.
We have used a metal cutting saw to cut the chuck off - about the only thing that works Conversion Kit N422782 for DeWALT Power Tool eReplacement Parts

How do I get the chuck off of my DeWalt DW 117 1/2" VSR Drill Serial #1229?

Open the chuck jaws and look down inside the chuck. You will see a screw head that is holding the chuck to the drill. Once you remove the screw, the chuck should pull off easily.

Problem with the Dewalt 3/8"VSR

My solution when the other mentioned ideas didn't work was this: I removed the 7 Torx #20 screws ( a common screw driver will work as well) and removed the housing half to expose the shaft. The chuck shaft bearings and gear lifts out as one assembly. Directly behind the chuck there is a half inch section of shaft exposed. I mounted a vise grip on the shaft (won't hurt it) and clamped the affair in a bench vise. With a 5/16" allen wrench mounted in the chuck and using a mallet I spun the chuck off with a solid smack counter clockwise . Very simple and easy .

How can i remove the chuck from my cordless dewalt power drill

Hello, W/D here.

To remove your chuck, open the jaws of the chuck fully, but don't open them so tight that they lock in the open position. Remove the screw inside the chuck. Spray the inside of the chuck with penetrating oil. Tap around the edge of the chuck, while pulling it away from the motor.
It should come right off, with a little effort.

Best regards, --W/D--

How to remove the chuck?

open the chuck fully and it shoudl have a screw inside. Unscrew it, but be carefull, these screws are usually reversed - to uncsrew, rotate it clockwise. Once done, put allen key into chuck (short side in), fasten the chuck to hold allen key well and hit the key with hammer - counterclockwise direction. You might want to verify this procedure with someone else as I have no experience with Dewalt, but this way it works for Makita, Metabo, Narex, ... then why not for Dewalt? Juraj

The dc925 and the current model dcd950 along with several other models of Dewalt 's line of cordless hammer drills DO NOT have a screw inside removal requires a CHUCK REMOVAL FIXTURE part #

How do you remove a key chuck from a dewalt drill

first shift the drill to the drill only position and the gear selector to the low position, remove the chuck retaining screw LH thread, find a bent handle allen wrench about the chuck capacity and lock in the jaws of the chuck, put the chuck on a block of wood at about a 30 degree angle to hit the long portion counter clockwise and strike it with a hammer, it might take a couple hits but it will come off. I misread the header last time.
